First Fleet Artwork CollectionNatural History Museum (UK): On 13 May 1787 eleven ships, now commonly referred to as The First Fleet, set sail from Portsmouth to establish a colony in New South Wales, Australia. They reached their destination on 18 January 1788, 18 years after Captain James Cook had first landed on the east coast of Australia at Botany Bay.

Drawings have been arranged under four themes: Natural History; Ethnography; Topography; and History.
